Harmony Hale has been putting the art in con-artist for years. Now, she's finally ready to take down the town mayor who ruined her father's life. But Harmony's tried-and-tested con - selling a non-existent music festival - requires her to win over the insufferably stubborn librarian who could lease her the land for the festival site.
Autistic librarian Preston Jones spends his days fighting conservative book challengers and looking after his younger sister Lacey. He has no time for a romance like the ones in his books - and certainly none for the brash festival promoter knocking down his door. Preston sees things in black and white, and Harmony is nothing but trouble. But when Harmony promises to help save Preston's library programs, he begins to wonder if this hustler with a heart of gold might be the one he's been waiting for. With Harmony's con coming to a crescendo, she must choose between revenge and running again, or the happily ever after she never saw coming...EARLY READERS LOVE MY KIND OF TROUBLE 'Melted my icy heart' NetGalley review 'The perfect blend of sweet and spicy' NetGalley review 'A slow-burn delight' NetGalley review 'Anything less than 5 stars would be an injustice' NetGalley review 'Such a lovely grumpy x sunshine romance that I could NOT put down' NetGalley reviewLeanne "L. A." Schwartz has spent about half her life at either the library or the theater, where she played Mrs. Paroo in her local production of The Music Man, as well as a dozen other mothers over the years. When this autistic author and English teacher hasn't got her nose in a book, she can be found baking pizzelle, directing scenes for the student Shakespeare festival, and singing along to showtunes. She is also the author of the young adult fantasies A Prayer for Vengeance and To a Darker Shore and lives in California with her family.
